From Minnesota Alumni Magazine Summer 2016

The Gopher women’s hockey team won its second consecutive national championship on March 27, ensuring that Natty—the affectionate moniker given to the national championship trophy—will reside in Ridder Arena for at least one more year. The Gophers won 3-1 over Boston College, which was 40-0 going into the game.

The Gophers (35-4-1) are back-to-back national champions for the third time in program history and now owns an NCAA-best seven national titles. The Gophers have won four of the last five national championships.
